Our nation’s poet has offered us another glimpse of his special genius. This time he has chosen genetics as his theme.

They’re sick people  
And a lot of them were let in here  
They shouldn’t have been let in  
Others they’re just bad  
They go bad  
Something wrong  
There’s something wrong there  
Genetics  
Are not exactly  
They’re not exactly  
Your genetic  
It’s one of those problems, Brian  
It’s a terrible thing  
And it happens too often

Hmm, I always thought my genetic happened too often.

Bone Spurs are a sure sign of Bad Genetics.

The irony is that when Donald’s grandfather, Friedrich Trump, emigrated to America from Bavaria in 1885, nativists were complaining about how Germans were ruining America, which had been founded by good settlers from England.

It took 130 years for the nativists to be proven right. Such foresight! Creepily un **Ⓐ** merican.

But in Germany we are glad to have gotten rid of that scum. Even if we end up bearing the consequences too, like everybody else.

I dunno. It’s possible to take the ravings of any madman and format them to look like poetry.

That doesn’t really make it poetry. ( **I do realize you are being facetious here,** but I resist any attempt to make Donald look as though he knows what he’s doing.)

I’ll admit I take a special enjoyment out of taking Trump’s own words and using them to reveal how stupid he is.

Very good – but you should link to a source so that we can also view it in its full appalling glory and context.

_That_ is always appropriate.
